Bakery Sourdough Bread Covered Market Independent

Hamblin Bread is the Covered Market stall of Kate and Hugo Hamblin's bakery, an offshoot of the original shop at 247 Iffley Road. The market unit opened on Thursday 6 March 2025 and trades Wednesday to Sunday, 10am to 3pm.

Sourdough from stoneground UK grain anchors the counter, alongside buns and baked goods, farmhouse cheese and natural wine. Named British growers — Cook's Yorkshire rhubarb, Styan Family greens — set the seasonal rhythm. The same range is sold at both locations; the Iffley Road shop opens earlier (Wed–Sun, 8am–2pm) and runs a Thursday-evening pizza night through the year.

Pair a loaf with a bottle from The Market Cellar Door two doors down, or a sandwich at Brothers if you want to sit.
